That's actually a very good point.

It could also be Sony has given IGN consoles and games to review whereas Microsoft hasn't. I don't see this as some anti-Microsoft plot.

The PS4 and XO discs are packaged and ready to go. There are unboxing videos of the next-gen copies on YouTube. Activision is launching them on the 5th as well, but some retailers are opting to hold the copies until the Tuesday before their launch with the EA/Ubisoft/etc. titles.

We're in the 30-day home stretch for both consoles. Get hyped!

And for the love of pete, if you make a new poll, don't screw it up.

"Why is it surprising?" he asked, expecting the answer "because".

Not sure if anyone actually uses Bing but I noticed they're giving away some Xbox One consoles if you have search points or Bing rewards or whatever the thing is they give you when you're signed in and use their search engine.

I use their image search sometimes because Google has gotten worse, and had a whole bunch of points I wasn't even aware of.

I got that e-mail, I ignored it... Fat chance of winning, even if I win, I'll give it away, maybe I post it here?

Sure. I'll tell you what, if you win one, I'll take it off your hands.

Oh and Bing rocks (the rewards portion that is, the search engine sucks). They have been funding my XBL points for a couple years now.

I just started doing some of the Bing rewards, and it was nice getting $3 credit on Amazon. I keep forgetting to use Bing more often daily.

I never ever use Bing on my PCs, but I use it on my phone all the time. It's not as bad as its name. At all.

I use Bing at work to help fund my Starbuck's addiction. ;-)

I didn't know Bing gave you money. Interesting.

Not money, just points that you can use for raffles, giftcards (Amazon) and XBL point cards, etc.

Kind of like a credit card with point purchases, except you don't have to buy anything and the reward selection is much smaller.

But if you can get in the habit of using it for a few mins each day, it really adds up.

Can I just make it my default search engine or do I have to sign in or something?

Obviously, you have to sign up for the program, but I'm wondering if there are any additional steps day to day.

Just sign in using your microsoft id or facebook. You can set it as your default engine and get a one time boost in points. Then, set it back to your preferred engine.

I'll check it out. Thanks.

I use chrome and google at home, but how much worse could Bing be?
